Azagri’s “Pillow Fight”

Restrictions: Pillow Fight requires one persona point to activate. Azagri must be wielding “Kila,” his battleaxe, and he must strike his opponent in the head.

Effect: Zag bonks his opponent with the pillow-side of his battleaxe. The opponent — expecting to be utterly annihilated by a Dwarven axe-blow to the face — must make a Steel check for hesitation.

Bio

Azagri was born during a solar eclipse and his birth was foretold by the seven midvives of Krazinzud. It is said that he will unite all the Free Peoples of Middle-earth under his banner to conquer the shadow once and for all eternity.

Or, at least, that’s the story he’ll make up after too many ales.

He has never had to use conditioner in his hair. His chain-mail never chafes. When he visits the ladies of the Gemstone Mine… they pay him. He saved the queen of the Ironfist clan with the strength of his grip and the power of his jaw.

He is… the most interesting Dwarf in the world! (self-proclaimed)

“I don’t always drink beer,” (yes he does) “But when I do, I prefer Dos’Dun. Stay thirsty my friends!”
